August 24, 2020 · 2:54 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“Cliff Sims, a former aide to President Donald Trump, who sued the president after writing a brutal tell-all book about his time in the Trump White House called Team of Vipers, is back on the Trump team, serving an important role overseeing speechwriting for the upcoming Republican National Convention,” ABC News reports.

“Sims is not only supervising speech writing for the convention, but is also spearheading the efforts for remarks by the president’s children, including Donald Trump Jr. and Tiffany Trump.”
